Summer, as you all know, will be here before we know it. If you’re looking for programs and doing your planning now for your kids, here is a directory of some of the ones our students have attended as well as a few new options. Please call the ones you are interested in as soon as possible, as they may fill up quickly. Many have scholarships available.

As I hear of other programs I will pass along the info to you, and if you know of camps that you would like to recommend, please share them with us and we will add them to our listings.

Good luck with planning a terrific summer.
